All advancements on the play are nullified as the result of the batting out of order penalty. Number 14 would be removed from the base. If there had been other runners that advanced on the play, they would return to the base occupied at the time of the pitch. If there had been other runners that were put out, those outs would stand. (Stolen bases from previous pitches to the improper batter would stand.)

If on this play, the batter runner had been put out, I believe the status of that "out" would be dependent on what organizational rules you are under. In NFHS, the out made by the batter runner would be nullified, and the out charged to the proper batter for batting out of order would stand. I believe there are other organizations that would count the out by the batter runner and also count the out for batting out of order.
